Cartel Market

General

All Cartel Market Toy items are now Bind on Use. Previously, some of these items did not bind to the player.

New Items

The Eradicator's Mask is now available on the Cartel Market. Cost: 480 Cartel Coins

The Huttsbane's Garments are now available on the Cartel Market. This collection of adaptive gear with no modifications is available to any Class at level 1. Cost: 900 Cartel Coins

Escrow Credit Transfers are now available for Free–to–Play and Preferred Status Players. Package denominations are available for 50K, 150K, and 600K . Each Package is a consumable that will immediately transfer the Package's set amount of credits from the existing Escrow Balance as listed in the Currency tab of the Inventory Window to the Inventory credit balance. This transfer does not affect Inventory Credit Caps. Therefore, newly acquired credits will go into the Escrow Balance as normal. For example, if the player has a Credit Cap is 250,000 / The player has 100,000 in their Inventory. The player purchases a 600K escrow package bringing their Inventory credit total to 700,000. Until the credits in the player's Inventory drop below 250,000 (the Credit Cap), the newly acquired credits will be funneled into Escrow. Cost:

Small Package – 40 Cartel Coins

Medium Package – 80 Cartel Coins

Large Package – 240 Cartel Coins

New Character Customization options are now available! Players who wish to create a new character using a newly added customization will first need to purchase and unlock the Appearance Option on an existing character via the Cartel Market or Appearance Designer Kiosk.

New Feature Collections is a new feature which provides a one–stop interface accessible from the Inventory Window or Cartel Market:

Collections will track most items available from the Cartel Market, Packs (Cartel, Contraband, and beyond!), Cartel Reputation, and even Friends of Star Wars: The Old Republic, Pre–order, Collectors Edition, live fan events and more.

Rather than being limited to one character or Legacy, items tracked with Collections share across the entire account – all characters, all servers.

Once an item or gear set has been acquired on a single character, the player can use Cartel Coins to unlock that item or gear set for all characters on the account, with the exception of level 15, 31, and 43 Adaptable gear and Cartel Reputation items.

Decreased the instance population cap on Imperial and Republic Fleet Stations as well as several planets.

Items and Economy

General

New Feature! Dye Modules are now available via Artifice, some vendors, and the Cartel Market. They function similar to other item modifications:

It is highly recommended that all colors be previewed before the Dye Modules are applied to any piece of gear.

To add Dye to a piece of gear, simply open the Item Modification Window and place the Module into the new Dye Module slot.

Once slotted in gear, Dye Modules cannot be recovered, and removing a Dye Module will destroy it.

Gear that has been slotted with Dye Modules will still update when using the "Unify to Chest Color Theme" option, so only one Module (slotted into the chestpiece) is needed to maintain consistent coloration for an entire set of gear.

The Exceptional Powered Exoskeleton Body Armor and Environmental Asylum Body Armor now have the correct icon and appearance when equipped.

The Tionese Duranium Faceguard and the Prototype Balmorran Duranium Faceguard will now display properly when equipped.
